Marketing gimmick

In Response To: Rut-row ... Reserve your special ed. now (Cardo 8 ATL)

I think this is probably a way of scaring fence-sitters into pre-ordering. These "limited/special/collector's edition" things are simply more costly to produce and they don't want so many of them sitting around on store shelves, gathering dust. You can still walk into a GameStop and find Halo 3 Legendary Editions taking up shelf space behind the counter.
